Anti-trans activist and fifth-place swimmer Riley Gaines is getting attention on social media after she made a video complaining that her dream of going to dentistry school was ruined by pro-trans university officials.
In a video produced by the anti-trans clothing brand XX-XY, Gaines complained that she has been "silenced" by LGBTQ+ rights activists and woke university administrators, despite the fact that she has spun the 15 minutes of fame she got when she tied for fifth place at a swim meet with a trans woman in 2022 into a career in right-wing punditry.
"For daring to say that men and women are different, I've lost friends, of course, the media has been dishonest about me, I've been called every name in the book," she says in the video.
"My university told me I'd never get a job," she claimed. "No employer would ever hire me because they would look me up and see that I'm a transphobe."
"They knew I wanted to go to dental school, and they said that I would never get into a dental school. No dental school would ever even look at my application if I spoke up about this."
Gaines has spoken in the past about her dream of attending dental school, telling the college sports website Your Sports Edge in 2021 that she hoped to do so.
It's unclear if Gaines ever tried to become a dentist, or if the unnamed administrators' alleged comments turned her into a quitter.

That is the real reason. Dentists have patients. Bigots do not have people skills. And celebrity bigots draw attention to the employer. I don't blame them for not wanting to hire them. I wouldn't.
But she is whining about something that hasn't happened. She has not applied (as far as we know), she has not been denied, and no employer has actually refused to hire her yet. She is just making noise to get attention. Like a spoiled baby crying about things that didn't happen.

It's really simple. If you stir up conflict, cause negative attention and have issues creating positive relationships with diverse people, then expect rejections. Neither establishments or employers want people that bring trouble to the door. It's really that simple. Plenty of other things you can do besides dissing trans people that will make everyone give you a wide berth!
